I need to make some changes. Things feel so unsettled in my life right now that I'm not sure where to begin.
I know for one thing, Lillian and I both need to start eating healthier. I've been feeling this way since Delaney was only a few weeks old. Its a good thing I started running again when I did because I'm pretty sure I would have gained some weight back. I'm holding steady around 214 right now and that just isn't acceptable. Especially since I'm running a minimum of 6 miles a week. I mean, its not much, but it is exercise!
Lillian and Delaney had their well child visits yesterday...
Delaney: 2 Months
Height: 24.5" (above 95%)
Weight: 13lb 6oz (above 95%)
As if they don't grow fast enough! My friend had her baby girl 6 days before me (she was due the day before me) and she is only 21.5" and 9lbs something. That's barely what Delaney was when she was born! I won't lie, I'm jealous of her small baby.
Lillian: 3 Years
Height: 36.5"
Weight: 35.5"
This has her doctor a little worried. Her BMI is increasing every visit and that isn't good. When I looked it up on the Mayo.Clinic site yesterday I found that if you put her in as 3 feet she's considered obese and if you put her in as 3'1" she is over weight. So basically for a 3 year old girl she is on the verge of being obese. This broke my heart.
So besides getting our eating habits changed, I need to figure out a way to communicate better with my husband. We have definitely been having a break down late and while we are calmly mentioning things here and there and some what resolving them, we really need to sit down and have a serious talk about things without be interrupted by a 3 year old. Especially since I think this talk will help relieve some of my stress. Especially when some of that stress is caused by the condition of my house. IT IS A MESS!!! Clothes (at least most of them are clean piles) all over, toys all over, just random stuff all over. And I can't even tell you how bad the sheets on my bed need to be changed, but I haven't had the time. It never even crosses my mind until it's time to go to bed!
And speaking of not enough time, I better get some work done. I've had this window open for 2 hours now trying to get this posted!
